DeLillo

[Charles Albert]

Some of it I like, but a lot of it feels, I don't know, overwritten
sort of, and yet generally plain, if you get what I'm saying.  Like a
more polished version of something you might find in a creative
writing class almost.  I think a good way of saying it is, the way he
orders his words is plain


Yup......his prose doesn't really flow, it seems.....more pizzicato than
sonorous...

love,
cfa
